| PASTA WITH PEPPERMINT AND GARLIC | |
|
This is a very light and surprising pasta dish. It should not need any grated cheese, but you can add it when serving. I prefer thick spaghetti for this dish, but it works also beautifully with fusilli. Very easy to prepare and quite healthy too. 1 lb. pasta (your choice) 1/2 cup of peppermint leaves, coarsely chopped 6 garlic cloves, minced 6-8 tablespoons olive oil salt & pepper to taste Cook your favorite kind of pasta, leaving it slightly firm (al denté). Drain. In a large frying pan with the olive oil, sauté the garlic and quickly add the peppermint leaves and the black pepper (optional) Don't let the garlic turn brown. Add the pasta and continue sautéing, stirring frequently until the pasta is done (al denté, of course!!) Add the salt and serve very hot. Submitted by: Luis De Santis (Venezuela) | |

This was a wonderfully flavored pasta, and the peppermint is a wonderful touch. I make this recipe if I'm in a quick rush, or I feel like something herbal.
